Holiness

Lyrics

When God took His people to the promised land He gave them their freedom and He gave a command He said, West of the Jordan, you can have all you see But the ware of their idols won't be holy to Me Holiness, holiness It's the only life That the Lord can bless Holiness, holiness It's the Lord's command Not the Lord's request They heard the commandment, but did not obey They hardened their hearts and wandered away From the goodness of God and the blessings He gave To traditions of men and the yolk of a slave Holiness, holiness It's the only life That the Lord can bless Holiness, holiness It's the Lord's command Not the Lord's request Holiness, holiness It's a life apart From the world's excess For the people of God The remains of rest Holiness, holiness Jesus is calling you, "Come take My hand I'll lead you away from the wilderness land To a place full of goodness as far as you see But remember Who brought you and be holy to Me" Holiness, holiness It's not your food or drink It's not the way to dress Holiness, holiness It's to hear the Lord And to answer yes Holiness, holiness It's the only life That the Lord can bless For the people of God There remains of rest For the people of God There remains of rest Holiness, holiness
